Quantum of Solace
i miss old Bond
Oct 9, hello Europe
Tropic Thunder
A really funny opening, not so much the ending (although T.Cruise was not bad). A good companion piece to Zoolander. fun fun fun.

Man on Wire

Hancock

Vicky Christina Barcelona

Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
one of those informative documentaries with a lot of quick cuts to keep your attention. (side note: amazing how close J.Depp's performance was to real Hunter)
My Winnipeg
cool Guy
Step Brothers
it's hard to believe that so many people actually like this movie. there are only few moments i liked that mostly surround Will Ferrel's singing but as a whole it's just 'ok'.
Hellboy 2
it feels like an episode from a series. doesn't have the epic feel to it as the first film did. phenomenal art and creature design.
july 27
The Dark Knight
bad acting,dull story,lack of action- just kidding!
Wanted
not wanted
X Files: I Want to Believe
what a pleasure watching this in a theater filled with fans. Very down to earth subject, but at least there are no unsolved, ever-changing, never-ending conspiracies and clifhangers as in latest x-files seasons.

Get Smart
Smart Panther
Wall-e
good atempt at making a movie suitable for all ages. Amazing achievement in CGI. It is not better than Kung Fu Panda.
The Happening
I loved it.
The Incredible Hulk
good acting makes it stand out. I liked that the story progresses through images rather than dialog (or minimum dialog).
june 17
Sex and the City
good acting from SJ Parker and C. North (only). I considered the TV show to be of very good quality, so is this.
Kung Fu Panda
it's a masterpiece of Panda movies. (and of CGI)
Indiana Jones 4
H. Ford looks awesome in it. The movie seems like a lazy effort by Spielberg and a good effort by ILM effects company.
The Chronicles of Narnia 2
amazing production values, very boring result. I suppose it has appeal for hardcore Narnia fans.
Young People F**king
young people acting
june 1
Speed Racer
rated T for Toddlers
What Happens in Vegas
funny, mindless
The Forbidden Kingdom
colorful and adventureful
The Unknown Woman
grim puzzle
Baby Mama
film with funny people.
may 12
Redbelt

The Visitor

Forgetting Sarah Marshall
1930's screwball comedy pushed to the limit of today's standards.

Drillbit Taylort
tv-quality
Iron Man
IronRoboManCopBat
april 29
Shine a Light
it is a well made concert film, nothing special except for few moments.
Street Kings
it is poorly acted and has a comic book feel to it, but it is well paced and has the right energy for an action drama.
april 5
Snow Angels
not interesting but interesting direction
The Grand
interesting but not good.
march 31
Deep Sea 3D
movie evolution.
march 30
Stop-Loss
bad acting, good message.
Honeydripper
it grows on you. slowly.
Run Fatboy Run
funny and funny bad taste.
march 22
Doomsday
fell asleep, thank god.
10,000BC
difficult to relate to
Horton Hears a Who
creative and funny and all that but i think it's targeted to children mostly.
march 21
Married Life
a light look at adultery,deception and murder.
The Bank Job
you need to know that it was based on a true story to enjoy it.
Semi-Pro
big disappointment
march 11
The Counterfeiters
interesting
CJ7
funny
march 11
In Bruges
ranges from halfhearted to great performances. Funny and Moving.
The Spiderwick Chronicles
this is a 2-hour excersise on how many different ways you can use word 'book' in a sentence.
march 2
The Band's Visit
there's one awesome scene.
Be Kind Rewind
there are few mediocre scenes the rest is awesome.
Jumper
awesome concept, not so awesome realization
Vantage Point
awesome realization, not so awesome concept
feb 10
U2 3D
the best 3D movie I've ever seen, but there aren't that many. a dubious compliment. Many awesome moments!
feb 10
Cloverfield
conceptually it was very clever especially mixing of pre-recorded and new footage on the tape. i would not enjoy it if it was made in a conventional way.
Fool's Gold
once in a while we all need some mindless entertainment.
iPersepolis
again, if it wasn't made in this beautiful animation I would be very restless. but it was and I enjoyed it and could relate to the story as probably everyone did who ultimately liked the movie. you need to have been a teenager and not mind reading subtitles to enjoy it.
feb 8
National Treasure 2
popcorny
Enchanted
silly, but A.Adams' performance was very funny and spot on.
There Will Be Blood
i think this was an accurate portrayal of hatred and greed that is required to become wealthy and powerful in this world.
jan 31
I'm Not There
this was an impressive and inspiring film. (amazing cast and performances. can't say it wasn't confusing though)
jan 27
Rambo
there was nothing that i liked about it. but i didn't hate it...
